Oration “Quamvis in hoc senatu” of Enea Silvio Piccolomini (23 August 1451, Wiener Neustadt). Edited and translated by Michael von Cotta-Schönberg. Final Version (2025). (Orations of Pope Pius II; 17)

Résumé

In 1451, the Duke of Burgundy’s crusade had matured to the extent that he would attempt to make it a joint European project. Among others, he sent an embassy to the Imperial Court, at the time residing in Wiener Neustadt, where it was given a polite but not enthusiastic reception. In the name of the emperor, his top diplomat, Bishop Piccolomini of Siena, replied to the Burgundian ambassadors with the oration “Quamvis in hoc senatu”. In this oration, he touched upon a number of themes which he would re-use in his future Turkish orations and ended with the emperor’s promise to take up the matter with the pope when he went to Rome for his coronation the next year.
